Presidential candidate and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has sent two planes full of supplies to Israel to support the country in its conflict with Palestinian terrorists.
The donated supplies, which include medical equipment, children’s toys, and hygiene products, are expected to reach Israel soon.
DeSantis also welcomed back nearly 300 Americans who were evacuated from Israel on flights organized by his administration.
Two cargo flights loaded with 85 pallets of donated supplies are on their way to Israel.

The governor expressed his commitment to helping Israel and providing support to those affected by the conflict.
“With the lack of leadership in Washington, we are stepping up to help our allies in Israel who are in need of supplies and our support,” DeSantis said a statement.
“As we continue to bring back Americans who were stranded in Israel when the war began, we will also keep sending the necessary health care supplies for Israel to care for those who have been injured.”
“Thanks to the decisive action of Governor DeSantis, the Division was able to quickly coordinate with our Israeli partners and compile needed supplies,” said Florida Division of Emergency Management Executive Director Kevin Guthrie.

“After working with the Israeli Consulate, medical partners and hospitals in Israel, the Division identified what items were most in need to reduce inundation and increase efficiency.”
“We’re here at Tampa airport. We are having our first flight of people being rescued from Israel and it’s landed,” he said.
“Over 260 people that wanted to get back to the United States and couldn’t do it … so we stepped up and led. We’re happy to be able to deliver this.”
